Always, have to keep your look smooth...

Yoga overdrive is the only gear that I want to be in and have been trying to understand lately. When I first started college I attempted to get into it because it was a way to workout, because you really can break a sweat and I sweat quick when it comes to yoga which is not common for me when I workout.

Now that I am getting older and time catches up to me I realize that there are so many energy forces that can knock me off of balance. Besides meditation yoga is the key to me having balance in my life which makes perfect sense since I am into Eastern medicine and all the healing practices the Eastern Hemisphere has to offer. 

A DVD released by  Yoga Journal with Natasha Rizopoulos is Session one, a Step-by-Step guide  and Bikram Yoga has allowed me to get reacquainted with what I have been missing out on.  So now I discovered who started Bikram Yoga, Bikram Choudhury himself and his book has so many great poses that help those with cancer and other diseases such as obesity.  Bikram yoga has 26 poses to practice as well as two signature breathing techniques.

With discipline and practice all the yoga practices can be done at home with no need for a teacher just a book or dvd.

Art of Living

Recently, I went to a meditation session at Sri Sri Center for Peace and Meditation, 2401 15th Street NW Washington DC 20009 which was so wonderful; and the good thing about meditation is that you do not have to be a rocket science, only be able to breathe. Just to stop and pay attention to how you are breathing and feel that is the art of living. Just to take the time out to meditate and refocus on what you want and being aware of one's surroundings is a great feeling. As hot as it was today and I could feel the sun scorching on me I did not break a sweat and I am amazed at some of the progress around me.

So I see the flyer for Sri Sri Ravi Shankur Evening of Meditation at the Washington DC Convention Center which already past on April 2, 2013 but the good thing is knowing finding true peace comes from within. Here is more on all that you can enjoy with Meditation in the DMV area. From the Mayo Clinic this is what meditation is all about and when you learn the different techniques than you can stress less or not have any turmoil coming from all the energies people put out phase you. What peace and joy life brings when you can live above distracting influences to be well with serenity.

Naturally breathing and beautiful on a sunny day

Be Well...one with Meditation

Looking to clear out unnecessary train of thoughts or bad vibrations and energy that you can interpret than make sure you relax and meditate along to this. What a difference meditation makes when relieving imaginary stress to inhale and exhale good vibrations.

Crown/Bliss Chakra

One of the most important Chakra's would have to be 7 which shows enlightenment and connecting to one's spirituality. The focus is on top of the head and when meditating the sound that should be made is, "Om...Om...Om...Om...and Om."

When feeling down or not completely connected which may cause physical and mental challenges such as stress, nervousness, fear and depression. When this chakra is balanced their is peace, connection to higher planes, spirituality, strength and joy at the wonders of life.

All elements are associated with this Chakra but especially Fire, and the Fire astrological signs as well. It is good to keep a internal fire burning, have a candle lit or incense and make use of angelica, elemi or frankincense. 

Specifically good for meditation- go figure.

The color associated with this is violet.

More info about the Crown Chakra

The seventh chakra is know as the crown chakra and is situated on the top of the head or crown area. This chakra is represented by the colours violet or white Sahasara mandala and is also symbolised by sacred spirits. The seventh chakra is the foundation of our spiritual body and links us to the highest guidance, the creation. It influences spiritual will, inspiration, idealism and celestial knowledge it is our connection with the universe. This chakra physically influences the cerebral cortex, cerebrum, central nervous system, glands and the pineal gland, pituitary gland and hormones related to them.

When the crown chakra is balanced we are released from ego driven desires, we are able to trust in our highest guidance and know that we are guided in all that we do.

If this chakra is not working properly we will still be guided but this guidance will probably be ego influenced rather than from our highest guidance this can cause us to become unsure of our self's, reducing our self confidence and creating fear and anxiety. It can create negative influences in the physical this can be seen in the form of apathy and problems with the understanding and retention of knowledge. Physical problems which may occur are headaches, worry, anxiety, immune disorders, metal and cognitive problems.

When open this chakra feels as if there is a small amount of pressure, pulling or tugging at the crown of the head. The seventh chakra balance is affected by the balance of the previous six Chakras.

Spiritual Awakening

Dear Darling beings ,

As I continue on my life journey there are many lessons I have learned and discoveries I have to share. When things are falling into place and we are enlightened it is like a outer body experience which I have from practicing meditation and following  my spirit which leads me to pure happiness.  Today I got the chance to understand what the third eye is all about and it is connected to the Pineal Gland which is located in the Crown Chakra. Here you can find more information on all seven Chakras.

One of the most important thing I am learning and have been aware of, is that mental health is key. The mind is a great part of the body and spirit (trinity) working to progress people in the circle of life. This video is very educational and opened me up to tapping into the power of my being. Pineal Gland is a Gateway. Our true self leads to what makes us truly happy without compromising out "trinity" mind, body and spirit. Anything that jeopardizes the true essence of your being should be left behind or simply shout out of your life. Letting go of all fears will allow any perceptions of pain to disappear from your mind because that is where all the power resides, always take care of the body and let that spirit of yours be your guide.
